"Official" Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party 2016 - Have Yourself a Very Mickey Christmas.

[monorailrabbit]

DH and i will be there that night as well! I honestly don't care if its busy! I just can't wait!

Us too!! Plus, we just found out my sister is coming to meet us!! AAHHH!!!! We are the best of friends, and we have never gone together - we live in different states and only see each other maybe once a year so we are both just over the moon!

Question - someone mentioned reindeer a few pages back... is this a thing? Like we can get our picture with them? Where/when??? I'm embarrassed to say how excited I am about the reindeer of all things!

This thread is incredibly overwhelming with the glorious amount of posts, thoughts and ideas! We (DD15 and I) will be attending our very first MVMCP on 12/9 as a Sweet 16 gift. I know this is very subjective and personal, but what in your option should we NOT miss? We do not have to do rides as we go yearly and wont mind missing them. But what are some of the best kept MVMCP "secrets" in your seasoned opinion.

The must do's are the Castle lighting ceremony/show, the fireworks and the parade. As for secrets, there's not many of them. I say load up on the free ho-cho and cookie, and when it comes to character pics, the only 1 you have to commit time to (possibly 60+ min) 7 Dwarfs. Everyone else you can come across with minimal lines.

Are you forgetting Jack?

Yes, Jack is also a time sucker, like line up at 4 pm time sucker lol. Glad to know those are the things not to miss though! I may skip &D, although i really don't want to. Do y'all have a time line for the events listed?

 

[CampbellzSoup]

It seems that jack in the Halloween party meets before the party so hopefully that kills time

Can you believe actual Santa has small line?

People lined up before 4 pm for Jack and Sally during MNSSHP. I arrived at 4:05 and had at least 6 families in front of me! I imagine it will be the same time frame for MVMCP. Not sure I'll do that again though.

What time did they come out? My nephew would like to meet him but not when I told him how long he would have to wait.

They were out by 5:05 I believe it was, or 5:15.I was done by 5:30, and headed straight to 7D, who also came out early (6:08.) I was glad I had gotten them both out of the way, because lines were nuts after that!

Just a quick question about Jack and 7D...
Did you have to have a wrist band to get in line that early? We are going to the party, but, if they come out before 7 pm, it might be worth it to wait in line on my non party day. (We dont have tickets the 2nd night, just the first)
We could hang in line for the Dwarfs at 4:30 - 5pm, and still be out of the park by our 7pm "curfew"

Yes you would need to have a wristband to wait for party exclusive characters.

Exclusive Christmas Video link for all MVMCP guests:

Everyone who attends MVMCP will be able to access an exclusive link that's provided in the MVMCP Guide Map. The VIP characters have a special video greeting for you which is similar to the short Aurasma clips available during previous SWWs.

If anyone can snap a screenshot/photo of it, when it appears on your phone, and post it in this thread, I would appreciate it as the VIPs are anxious to see how it turns out.

Is this something out of the ordinary for a Christmas party?

 

[TJDisneymama]

Any chance that the character lines die down a bit during the first parade? Or is that just wishful thinking? We're not big on waiting in line for characters and I was thinking maybe that would be a good time to catch a few

Purchased our tickets for December 6!! I'm very excited and this will be my sisters and her families first Christmas party. Cant wait to show them all the magic.

The link should be in the Party Guide Map that you'll receive at the Party.

There should be a barcode to scan and then the video will appear. *This is how it worked for SWW at designated photo backdrops.

This video is a Christmas greeting from the VIP characters. I am specifically tasked with finding someone who will post the video, the barcode link, or a shot of The Big Cheese himself in the video. Not very specific at all!

 

[yeheyprincex2]

so we bought our tickets, having them mailed. Do I need to link them to each person? Or just use the hard ticket to get in?
I was able to make FP choices.
